In 2001, The Lord of the Rings shocked the world. At that time, countless viewers dreamed of exploring Middle-earth and debating who was the most handsome, and Legolas (the elven prince) was still Aragon.
In the blink of an eye, 15 years have passed, and our favorite actors have gone through the baptism of time with us. What have they all changed today? What they were all doing after The Lord of the Rings.

Fodo (Ilya Wood)
In addition to continuing to make films, Ilya also voiced animation and set up his own record label.
Legos (Orlando Bloom)
The elf prince is still so handsome, and the role of the elf prince he plays in the film is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but who knows, he was just an obscure little actor before starring in this film. After The Lord of the Rings, he starred in the most famous film than Pirates of the Caribbean 2 and 3.
Gandalf (Ian McLean)
Ian McLean is an old-school acting guru, and Gandalf's image in The Lord of the Rings is impressive, and was nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 74th Academy Awards. The image of Magneto in "X-Men" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the majority of movie fans.
Aragon (Vigo Mortsen)
Vigo Mortsen is not only an actor, but the Handsome Danish man is also a renowned artist, photographer, poet and musician. He owns a publishing company of his own, which specializes in publishing excellent works by some of the lesser-known authors.
Arwin (Liv Taylor)
Prior to The Lord of the Rings, Liv Taylor starred in a number of successful films, including Stealing Beauty (1996) and Armageddon (1998). She is now a mum of three and began her career as a filmmaker in 2016.
Sam Jange (Sean Austin)
Sam the Little Fat Man is also a favorite character, and he now continues his acting career, but "The Lord of the Rings" did not make him popular, and although there are many films after that, nothing particularly brilliant.
Pippin (Billy Boyd)
Pippin is actually a well-known original musician in real life, he can perform a variety of instruments guitar, bass, drum kits, and has his own band. "Edge of the Night" in The Lord of the Rings – Return of the King was written and sung by Billy Boyd.

Sean Binn became fascinated with fantasy after The Lord of the Rings, and he was featured in every film, including Troy, Silent Hill, and Game of Thrones. By the way, Sean Bin also holds a PhD in English Literature from the University of Sheffield, UK.
Iovin (Miranda Otto)
Miranda Otto doesn't have much of a good work other than Lord of the Rings.

Hiyotton (Bernard Hill)
Bernard Hill is the only person in the world to have starred in 11 Academy Award-winning films (Captain of the Titanic and Lord of the Rings).
Elrond (Hugo Viven)
Hugo Viven's most memorable film is probably not The Lord of the Rings, but The Man in Black in Hacker Empire. And his famous films are far more than these two "V-Kills", "Transformers", "Captain America" and other films have his presence. Even in "Cloud Atlas", he played six roles by himself.
Kinley (John Rees Davis)
The dwarf warrior is completely unknown outside of "The Lord of the Rings", starring in TV series and films, which are basically poorly received works.
Gollum (Andy Serkis)
Because of the special effects of the movie, it is estimated that few people can know the actor behind the role of "Gollum", who has been nominated for multiple awards. But Serkis is no small man, he is not only an actor, but also a director and writer.
